can an overheat cause freezing throughout pc lifetime?
This happen to me when i built my computer and it wasnt an accident i was just ignorant. I tried to see if my computer worked before applying the CPU as to save me from having to take the heatsink off if the CPU was DOA. It turned itself off after a couple seconds and i was stuck. I didnt know what i was doing. I did this not once, but like 3 times. Its worth noting i have a 220w AMD processor (Ik, big mistake) but i took the computer in to a microcenter and they explained what i had done, which was overheated my porcessor... 3 times. They put my heatsink on and everything worked good, they said i was the luckiest guy to have my CPU still work after this. However, it started doing what yours is doing. I hurried up and sent it back to the AMD manufacturer and they replaced it under warranty. (I didnt exactly tell them what i had done) and now everything works like it should.
So if i were you id hurry up and get it replaced because i believe it is your CPU. You probably burnt some pins or something.
